Symetria Recovery is a nationally distinguished leader in addiction and mental healthcare, providing medication-assisted treatment (
MAT) services combined with
outpatient therapeutic programming throughout several locations in Illinois and Texas. They treat clients with addiction to benzodiazepines, codeine, fentanyl, heroin, hydrocodone, opioids, oxycodone, and prescription drugs. Symetria prioritizes fast access to medications and treatment, with up to same-day admissions, where clients can generally receive dosing during their first appointment.
The staff at Symetria Recovery Arlington includes a doctor of medicine and psychiatry, masters-level therapists and addiction counselors, and nurses. They prescribe and administer medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms, combat cravings, and promote long-term recovery. These include Suboxone, Methadone, and monthly Vivitrol injections. During the admissions process, genetic testing is often done to determine Vivitrol’s compatibility and benefits. Their clinic hours extend from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekdays and 7 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. on weekends.
Their whole-person approach to healing includes addressing underlying mental health conditions with an
intensive outpatient program (IOP), treating co-occurring disorders such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and more. Groups occur 3 days per week for 3 hours per day, led by a masters-level therapist taking a non-12-step approach.
Additionally, Symetria provides unlimited 1:1 therapy as part of their comprehensive care, offering regular sessions with a masters-level provider to address individual needs and acquire the skills to achieve long-term sobriety.
Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Symetria Recovery Arlington Outpatient provide structured pathways to evidence-based care.
